    the parking lot is not upside down, or the photo photoshoped, it's just that the person who took this pic is creative and innovative

    I wish artists would describe their pictures more in detail. i am so interested to know if this was planned or did you just come across the picture and played around with different ideas to see how you wanted to take it. Did you take other shots before deciding on this one? Maybe even a tute. I know most people are probably happy and inspired just by looking at the picture. However I am inspired by hearing the details leading up to and the making of the finished pic.
    Anyway this picture is beautiful.

    i think it's good that u ask. the image is intriguing. i suspect u should wait for a response from zJMac but the source of the image seems obvious to me once i studied it. it's simply the image of a parked car with it's reflection defined in a big puddle of water. probably taken on a bright sunny day which accounts for the hi definition of the car in the water. the image was then turned upside down to complete the illusion.

    xxxxlesliexxxx I took this shot in the middle of running through a parking lot. I had about 10 seconds to pull out the camera and take the shot. I took it originally for the deep saturated colors in the morning light.

    mbmanray Yup!
